Hey man, covid is over and its time to go back to shit.

Any debate I am having is discussing the post-mortem so to speak.

There was no way to know how it was going to play out March 2020, and it killed a half million Americans with draconian measures.


Didn't we know very early on that children weren't significantly impacted?

At this point in my life, I sympathize with the Carthaginians. Public officials should face consequences for their actions.

All about the money.

I just got done with my graduate degree. 2 and half semesters were purely online/remote.

That means millions were saved In things like electricity, heat, various types of campus services I.e. janitorial, gyms, etc in a school that has 20k students.

Now multiply that by thousands of campuses across the states.

You think the scumbags reduced tuition accordingly because they weren’t incurring all of these costs? Lmao yeah right.

If only we had real journalists in this country that would cover this fleecing instead of dissecting Trumps every move.

Agree that the current educational model is crap. All my lectures in med school were recorded. Nobody went to class. Only to anatomy labs.

In undergrad I needed to go to labs if they had the lectures recorded. Everything could have been online for me to do at my own pace and I would have probably graduated with two degrees in half the time. The crap schedule was more of an impediment than an asset and only adds to cost.

The networking was valuable though. There is a lot to say for that.

Every student at my university had to take 5 credit hours of spanish, for two terms, at how much per credit hour, vs 45k undergrads or whatever. It isn't like it is beneficial at this level, i still just get translators who didn't learn Spanish at a university, lol.

It's been a rip off for a long time. Welcome to the bandwagon to the cuckcallers.

you guys start to understand school is a business? welcome to the real world. you learn faster by yourself than going to school. school is crap. only difference is the piece of paper that show you paid the government money to be part of their system. i 100% vouch people who learn a manual job that require to be on the spot to actually learn something very precise. everything else = big waste of time. i got more money than people will have working their whole life and ain't the smartest guy around. just have the balls to take risks and take life for what it is. the biggest win to me is never have to work a single day for the rest of my life. Owning 100% of my time is the biggest gift i could give myself.

i 100% suggest you guys to learn finance or become a freelancer and forget everything else unless you were to become a doctor or something actually useful for advancement of Civilization.

No, I don't. There are plenty of reputable journalists who cover stories about the reasons for high tuition costs. The problem is that people like you can't seem to distinguish between high quality journalists and some blogger talking out of their ass. You'll see a mistake here and their from reputable outlets and/or focus on low-quality click driven media in order to justify your quest for extremely shitty journalism.

You don't need a journalist to understand the school system is a business and there to make money and exploit people ... two brain cells or more will do.
